I have been using it for some time on my Thrive. It did however, cause a boot loop when I set it as the default launcher. Otherwise (knock on wood), it is working fine.
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Peahnuts:
I haven't had any issues with VTL myself, guess I'm just lucky. Btw, does anyone else have a home replacement that is smooth and just as functional on a tab?
[Thrive Themes and Apps] t_sandat8:
I'm using TINYPLAYER for my mp3's.

Its a pure player.

No Art work or search controls. Shows music by file name from folder you set. I actually like it like that. Has shuffle repeat and random. Also another cool feature is font re-size.

But one problem with it don't know if other are having same problem. When using the app and you initiate the g sensor that would reorient the screen the player give error about cant find the SD card. I play music when I drive so this really erks me. Bumps are fine but soon as I turn I get the error. I store my music on the SD card about 10 gigs worth.

My Spider Solitaire should work without problems on Thrive: https://market.android.com/details?id=magory.solitairespiderhd. It is designed for tablet screens (doesn't work on phones). I'm working on some improvements now (expect them next week). Am also working on another, more advanced game. Writing for Android is fun. :)
[Thrive Themes and Apps] osheriff:
hey all, the not sure why it hasn't been said yet but adw ex works like it was made for the thrive. Very stylish seen transitions and I can't explain how fast it is (you need to try it yourself) it also allows you to use more of the screen unlike the stock. All widgets and are resizable, you can create as many or as little screens (I prefer to have received rather than the standard 5)
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Peahnuts:
Thanks I'll be sure to check it out. I personally wonder how you have so many screens, I can barely fill 3 screens lol.
[Thrive Themes and Apps] photoheidi:
I installed Adw ex today after trying other stuff that wouldn't work and I really like it. Very smooth and adaptable. Im scared to try the other one, but I am sure they will update it to work with 3.1 soon.
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Peahnuts:
Yeah, I haven't had any problems with the other one but I'm using ADW ex just 'cause it's smoother. But what bugs me is the little icon on the top left. My homescreen is generally black and white themed and the icon just sticks out so much lol.
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Jocelyn:
I have a different tablet, but wanted to say I totally agree! You can disable it with the hide/show action bar widget, however it comes back with a 90° rotation (not 180). I've written anderweb, so hopefully this gets changed.
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Peahnuts:
The new update replaced it with an App Drawer icon which doesn't stick out as much. :D
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Magnesus:
I made a game for tablets (works on phones too, but is best on tablets): Memory Owl HD (https://market.android.com/details?i...ry.memoryowlhd).

Also tablified.com has a great list.
[Thrive Themes and Apps] Peahnuts:
I think I'l stop updating this list and there's already multiple websites that have app lists for tablets. Btw, the market link doesn't seem to be working for me.
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
So I guess this is the right section, correct me if i am wrong.

I've installed a craked version of Beautiful Widgets (shame on me) so I could try it for some time. Now I want to buy the application and I cant! Somehow the android market thinks i've purchased the app.

Does any one know a way to fix that?

Tks :D
[General Questions and Answers] Jaredsk74:
Have you tried uninstalling the cracked version first? That should in theory let you buy it. If you already did that then I have no idea lol.
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
I've flashed the new GB, so the app is not at my phone anymore /=
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
Try clearing data for the market. Go to settings > applications > manage applications, then select the "all" tab. Scroll down until you find the market app and select it. Select the "clear data" button. If that doesn't clear the cache - it should - clear that as well. Then open the market and search for Beautiful Widgets. Hopefully you'll be able to purchase it before it repopulates your list of apps.

I've noticed this with apps that I got for free from Amazon. If you cannot get that to work, wait until there's an update to BW. Once you see the "update" button and select it, you'll be given an option to buy it. I thought that somehow the Market integrated with Amazon (yeah right), but unfortunately not.

I think pirating apps is sleazy, especially considering that they're usually only $1-$3 and a one-time purchase. But thank you for actually purchasing the app after pirating it.
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
I´ve already tryed to clear the market data and no succes =/ Guess I will have to wait for the next update from Level Up.

I agree with you plainjane, the apps price are VERY reasonable, but I like to try the apps for some time before buying them and the new market refound system makes impossible to try the app for some time.

Any other suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
Have you tried purchasing it from a computer? Go to the market website and try there. If you're able to purchase it there, the download should automatically start on your device if you're connected to the Internet.

Alternatively, you can reinstall the app and uninstall it from the market. You should then have the option to purchase it.

If you can't get anything to work, you can always contact Market support.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
If you think you still have remains on your phone from the cracked version you can try the app in my signature "sd maid" to remove those remains.
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:

did you come up with a solution?

i´m in the same situation:-(
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
Not shure if I got lucky or not but 2 weeks ago i've instaled the MUIU Prime v4 and I was able tu purchase the apps in the old market.
[General Questions and Answers] brynte5:
Thx, but I'm already running miui xj and I don't want to change my rom!

Any other alternatives?
[General Questions and Answers] MoonRaven:
Try installing the cracked version and uninstalling through the market. Not an ideal solution but I think that will work.
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
That does not work because the market "thinks" you bought the App
[General Questions and Answers] MoonRaven:
Hmm I thought it checked whenever you open the page..
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
Sadlly no. The web market (market.google) has a database for the purchased apps. So if you install a cracked version of an App google put a purchased flag on the database. But i think that the old market does not use this database that is why i was abble to buy the app using the old market.

When i say the old market i mean that one that came with the 2.2, with a green half circle on top.
[General Questions and Answers] AFAinHD:
OK the way to do it that has worked for me when I use cracked apps to test is that, it will look like it thinks you have purchased but when you hit update or install, it will ask you to pay.

[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:

[General Questions and Answers] AFAinHD:

[General Questions and Answers] brynte5:
thx for helping out, but problem not solved!

i have tried the following:

* update from cracked app

* uninstalled cracked app and then install from market

* uninstalled cracked app, installed demo version from market and then tried to upgrade to full version

all of these attempts failed!

it just says in the market that the app is purchased and when i try to install it (or update it), it says something like "download declined because app is not purchased"!

i guess a full wipe would be a solution, but i´d rather not do that, right now!
[General Questions and Answers] jethro650:
Full wipe won't help...at least it didn't in my case. I have done a few full wipes and even switched between android versions and still get to "download and install" before it tells me app is not purchased but there is no purchase option in market, only install...
[General Questions and Answers] brynte5:
So there's really no way out of this:-(?

Maybe send a request to Google support, to remove the purchased status, as a last resort...?
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
Yeap, full wipe will not work. Try doing this: back up your rom then install a rom that uses an old version of the market application. Then try to install the app.
[General Questions and Answers] jufranz:
I have already tryed that. LoL. "Currently threre is no way of changing the status" or something like that
[General Questions and Answers] AFAinHD:
Well I guess if nothing works, why don't you just keep the cracked version and donate to the dev the cost of the app?

Remember to hit the thanks button if I helped! It only takes a second!

[General Questions and Answers] daized:
If you purchase an app from android market, you can install it on any device that you logon with your google account. So, you don't have to mess with the phone you use everyday. Instead, you can use your old phone to uninstall market updates and stuff. That's what I did to resolve the problem. I turned on my old android phone and did the factory reset. The phone restarted with market version 2.3.4. The problem game was available for purchase in that version of the market. Once I purchased it from my old phone, I was able to install it on my other two devices as well. Hope that helps.

[Defy General] NSCoyote:
i just started using my back up phone (stock Defy 2.2.1) a few weeks ago when my LG p500 crapped out and up until a couple of days ago when i connected my bluetooth earpiece (Blueant T1) when a call came in i could hear the ringer through the ear peice, but now the ringer only plays on the phones internal speaker and not the Blueant T1, i can still play music and hear system sounds on the blueant but theres no ringer or call announce with it anymore. i havent changed any settings i have tried a factory reset to cure it earlier as well as numerous re-pairing attempts but with no avail.

i havent heard from Motorola at all on this and i know the Blueant works fine on other phones i have tested it on. can anyone help with this issue is there a hidden settigns menu that i need to access or????

[General Questions and Answers] :
ive just realised something. halo ce's minimum requirements are 800mhz processor and geforce 2 gtx and 256mb of ram. a lot of phones have more processing power than that (im mainly thinking about tegra 2 phones like the atrix)

So aside from the direct x issue would it be possible to port halo ce onto android?
[General Questions and Answers] Fenny:
...

:D

That is kind of a big issue, but maybe. It would have to run as a native application, and it would need to be ported to run on openglES, It would also involve a lot of refactoring to make a java-based interface to the game.

Possible... maybe with the source code, and some talented devs.

Not likely to be coming soon, and then there is the whole IP issue on top of the difficulty of the porting... I know I value my sanity too much to work on such a project.
[General Questions and Answers] greengoldmello:
Not likely. You may think that our current processors are more powerful, but that's not necessarily true. Watt for watt they are, but those non mobile x86 processors run many more instructions than these mobile chips. Also porting a game in x86 to ARM is a massive undertaking, not really worth it.

This is relevant to my interests. I was wondering why a Diablo 2 style game couldn't be tried. I know my phone far overpowers my old pc. Lol
[General Questions and Answers] Benjamin Dobell:
There are two main technological hurdles to overcomes when porting games from consoles/PC to a mobile platform are:

1. CPU Performance

Just because a ARM CPU has a higher clock-rate than a non-low-power CPU doesn't mean that it is more powerful. ARM is a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) CPU which means that it is ideal for low-power limited memory devices. However some operations that could be completed in one clock-cycle on an X86 CPU may take two or more clock-cycles an ARM CPU.

Even when comparing ARM CPUs to RISC PPC CPUs included in game consoles, the PPC CPUs tend to implement optimisations that aren't available in mobile ARM CPUs.

2. Graphics

As previously mentioned the main problem is that console and PC games are all developed with OpenGL (or possibly DirectX) not OpenGL ES. Whilst OpenGL ES 2.0 does have support for programmable shaders it's still very limiting compared to what can be achieved with OpenGL (even old versions).

Other Issues

There are also other issues due to the limited (or different) input mechanisms available to mobile device. The smaller physically sized screens are also potentially a issue even if resolutions are similar.
[General Questions and Answers] :
yea ive taken that into account and i know that arm CPUs are slower than an intel/amd counterpart despite higher clock speed. but surely a 1ghz dual core arm cortex a8 is faster than a 800mhz intel cpu.

the open gl thing was something i completely forgot about and know that you mention it i think the whole idea may not be possible. BUT i found this on wiki "PowerVR's Series5 SGX series features pixel, vertex, and geometry shader hardware, supporting OpenGL 2.0 and DirectX 10.1 Shader Model 4.1".

maybe it is still possible.

the screen size is another big issue. but maybe it will be ok on a tablet like the zoom.
[General Questions and Answers] REDTRONGUY:
We need to start looking into this again

Qualcomm will be releasing the snapdragon 810 soon it supports direct X, is x64, and has 2.7+ghz I think porting pc games is becoming much more of a reality and I would love for someone to give me a reason ditch my pc for gaming
[General Questions and Answers] darkjake:
I'd hate to re revive but since android practically is Linux, couldn't we focus on wine for android? That would not only allow people to install direct x in the first place on android phones and tabs but also open up many many possibilities such as a PC version of steam for android. A fun way of this could be taking advantage of Samsung's multi window support. But yes there is no halo for android before wine. Once wine is existant there will be PC on android. And Gabe's 3 will be comfirmed.
[General Questions and Answers] Beniah1287:
I have DREAMED of Halo in my pocket, and this is why I started developing. I thought I could put in the hours to at least get it off to a good start and get people involved. Here are the main issues, and the reasons that I (and I bet any others who have tried) eventually gave up.

It's been pointed out the difference in processing and graphics. X86 processors just run many more instructions than mobile processors. Mobile processors are catching up, and have been more powerful for a long time, but even if one runs a comparitively adequate number of instructions it still communicates differently with graphics processors and ram etc. This alone is intimidating because means that the entire game would have to be redone from scratch and the assets either stolen (yikes) or a partnership arranged with Microsoft.

Enter Microsoft. I love ole Mikey Soft I do, but they are defensive about their Halo. They recently made it almost impossible to install a fan project rework of Halo 1 CE. Any attempts to port to Android would be met with similar treatment. *Cough* they don't trust fans, but they gave Master Chief to 343, killed Cortana, and then made her evil.* That was a long cough. In their defense they have probably not pursued this because of the last point here: porr end product = poor user experience.

So processor, graphics, Mike, and finally porting itself. Borderlands 2 was recently ported onto an arm (mobile) processor. I bought a PS Vita+BL2 bundle specifically to see if I could learn anything about porting other pc games, like Halo. If you've played it you know that it is AWESOME, but has a great deal of glitches, frame rate drops, and even later loading textures than the PC/console version. To be fair I'm SHOCKED that BL2 and all its dlc run as well as it does on Vita. Bravo yo!

My conclusion was that it would have to be completely remade which would require using assets from a zealously guarded IP, and if a partnership was struck the final product would likely be extremely hard to optimize leaving all of us nostalgic fans with dissapointment as we are trying to launch each other to the top of blood gulch but run into such low fps that we can't coordinate the required wart hoggery. This is also why there are several Halo-ish games on Android. It's tough to Port, but much easier to imitate. Sad pandasaurus.

Can someone please assist me and provide the stock recovery image for the recently released Galaxy Tab 10.1 with LTE on Verizon? I tried to flash CWM 4.0.0.4 to the device via ODIN3 (didn't do a backup first) and it messed up the recovery image. The tab can boot fine and I can get into "Download Mode" but when trying to get into recovery mode I just get a blank screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jimh1999:
Welcome to the club, I have been working on the same problem. I think it has to do with fastboot.

I am rooted on LTE Tab, works great except no recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dfxdeimos:
Well, glad to know I am not the only one. How did you verify that you got "root"? I was under the impression that the ODIN3 application would do everything all in one go, but even now upon launching anything that says it requires SU privs I get an error saying I don't have them. Perhaps I am missing something.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jimh1999:
I flashed Pershoot's tools dated 5-15 using the stock recovery, that got me root, then I used Odin to flash the CWM recovery file and I lost all ability to go into recovery. I am rooted and can powerdown and restart tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mughalgxt:
once getting the root install rom manager from market and install clockworkmod recovery from it. that's the best way so far.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] drae52:
Wasn't there was issues with installing CWM from Rom Manager on the US wifi version; I do not recall exactly what those problems were, but I recall reading that it was better to use odin.

The Verizon tablet is a different tablet; afaik it's similar to the captivate / fascinate / vibrant deal, very similar; but different enough to cause issues.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jimh1999:
I tried to install CWM with Odin and with ROM manager and neither method worked. I couldnt get the fastboot menu on the verizon tablet before or after root.

would the NVFlash method work?
